The Ala-Too International University (Russian: Международный университет «Ала-Тоо»; Kyrgyz: Ала-Тоо Эл аралык Университети), formerly known as the International Atatürk-Alatoo University, is a private university located in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan that was established in 1996. The university offers graduate, masters, and doctoral programs. English is the primary medium of instruction at the university. However, some classes are taught in Russian and a few other classes are taught in Turkish. The Ala-Too International University was affiliated and funded by Muhammed Fethullah Gülen and his group advocating global Islamic education. Following the failed 2016 Turkish coup d'état attempt, which the Turkish government blamed on Gülen, the university changed its name from the International Atatürk-Alatoo University to the Ala-Too International University, appointed a Kyrgyz rector, and generally started to position itself more as a local institution.
